It’s always amazing watching Johnny as Willy Wonka. I find this particular performance to be one of the most unusual of his career (so far!). Young Freddie Hightower’s performance as Charlie is also one not to miss. And don’t forget Helena Bonham Carter!
“The Man Who Cried” was Johnny’s second film with Christina Ricci. Those two make an interesting pair. Other notable names here include Cate Blanchett, Harry Dean Stanton, and John Turturro (who also appeared with Johnny in “Secret Window”).
Johnny’s turn as corrupt CIA Agent Sands in “Once Upon A Time In Mexico” is lots of fun! I love the totally deadpan delivery of such lines as “Are you a Mexi-CAN or a Mexi-CAN’T?” I’m sure other actors could have pulled this off, but none of them with Johnny’s style!
Grab some popcorn and your remote and have fun this week!
